Wow, I never saw this coming. First, I would like to thank you Bob for ALL you have done for all 2600 of us who need a little (or alot) of help with our ponds and lakes. Second, I want to wish you the best of luck in absolutely everything in your future. Third, I hope you will be able to stop by and visit us ( that is if the Pond Boss empire is to remain)

Seems to me that the posting is on April 1 !!! Hmmm sounds like a prank or joke to me. If not I wish you all the best, but something smacks of a good old fashion April fools day joke to me. :rolleyes:

Sorry dude, but this chick ain't fallin' for it. I have seen the passion in your eyes (Atlanta meeting) when you talk about fish and Pond Boss. The only thing that would make you resign would be jail time (and you would still probably find a way to get to a computer ). What illegal act did you commit? :p Happy April Fool's day to everyone!

Bob -- did you set your alarm for 4:30 a.m. so you could be certain to have an early post??

I looked at the thread title, and the first words out of my mouth were "Oh, (woo-woo)"

The first thing that I thought seemed odd was the word "resign." You don't resign from your own company!
I didn't make the April 1 association right away. All I could think of was "are we still going to have the forum?"

Sorry, PFF, for the short lived job. You really have some insightful ideas: virtual strip poker night, Robinson slamming GG corner, PI forum, or some such as that. Opps, almost forgot the smiley face!

all right, I admit....I got queasy. I usually open my eyes, hit the java and computer about 5 - 5:30'ish (I gotta git a life). I read it after post #3, Jimmy. I felt like somebody ran over my dog. 6 months and it might be over already??? What now? Maybe Theo, Dave, Eric, and Bruce will buy in...maybe they already did. Maybe that's what all this moderator stuff was really about. This sux; who's gonna help me screw up my new pond? Then Doohan and PFF shocked me back to the calendar date, ultimately editing out to allow a chunk of nightcrawler to hang out there for another bite.

Brettski- Same here, I was sleepy and had only a sip of coffee when I saw it. My stomach turned a flip until I saw the date. Good work Doohan. BM- I like the shoot shovel and blabber idea best!

Whew, got through April fools day, that was tougher than groundhog day by far! Mr. Lusk, fine job, some of these folks could'nt a been more shocked if they'd a leaned against a 220V circut. BC, we're ALL glad! Brettski, ya say "I gotta get a life". Man, ya get up, kick the wife, kiss the dog, stumble ta the kitchen and get a cup caffy, read the forum, and head ta the pond. That is THE life! PFF, by the time frame of yer two posts, ya must be the guy the Who sing about. "I won't be fooled for long", so lickin yer wounds should'nt take long. Looks like April is gonna be a good month! Bob-O

Bob-o actually it was Doohan that was first. I talked him into erasing his post and then I erased mine so we could see who else would bite. For graemlins look to the left in the quick reply form. See the instant graemlins link? If you click on that link a small window will appear with all the graemlins. Click on the one you want and it will appear at the end of your typing.

Well, the last post was supposed ta have a smily face, but I have web tv instead of a real puter. Maybe cause I'm older than this system is the reason it don't work.
